Joe Namath is the reason I began following pro football! And here I am 46 years later "never to be a Football Widow"! People can make fun of him all they like now that he is in his "senior years" but he'll always be one of the best that ever played the game and made the game FUN (both on AND off the field!!!!)

Joe Namath used to come to the first club I managed called Twigs in Hewlett. He was so so cool. He and John Riggins were there alot. Joe would be by the bar and the next thing you know everyone wants to be Joe Willie a cocktail. Most of the Jets lived in Long Beach at the Azores on Shore Road. I lived at The Executive Towers on Broadway.

he would wear a pair of clogs all the time.We opened at 9pm and Andre usually was the first one in. Would dance for about an hour or so, have a glass of water and leave. He would also wear clogs with a tuxedo
